We have to hand it to all the teachers who are trying their best. A couple of hours ago, Santa Clara County issued guidelines for the coming school year, starting as early as next month. And some of the rules differ depending on your childs age. Masks will be mandatory for high school students, but only recommended for Elementary School kids. All desks will be six feet apart, and students cannot share supplies. Temperatures will not be required to be taken, but individual schools can do so if they want. And its not clear when students in the county can return to school. Whether schools can move forward with reopening for inperson instruction will depend on the containment of covid19 in the weeks and months to come. We know it does pose higher risk in the transmission of particles and things in the air. So that is an activity that would not be permitted. And if it is happening, it would be done virtually or individually. So many things at play here. A few gradespecific rules. Elementary schools will keep students in the same groups all day. For middle and high school, the focus will be on maximizing social distance. All schools will train staff on distance guidelines, and severely risk visitors and volunteers. What about sports . We still dont know. Football, volleyball, tennis, water polo are among the fall sports. The student athletes are in limbo. Jessica, you have a high schooler, i have an Elementary Schooler. Its frustrating to wait. And we got some guidelines, weve had to buy in whether we want kids to go back to school part time, or keep doing the s district learning from home.

Reporter at uc berkeley, scientists are using this saliva test. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Reporter today in the bay, we get an up close look of what you can expect when getting tested for covid19. No discomfort here at uc berkeley, where scientists are not asking people to tilt back their head. Theyre asking them to spit. People are excited not to get the nasal swab. Reporter heres how the test works. After people provide enough saliva, they close the sample kit which holds a special solution. After you spit, this closes and it clicks and releases the solution into the tube. Reporter they say its a win win for everybody, because the samples dont require Trained Medical workers. Less time, less money, and less ppe. The test is still in the experimental stages. Which means its not available to everybody. Theyre only testing 1,000 people like grad students, faculty, and campus staff. If someone tests positive, the University Says they will ask that person to get a nasal swab test to confirm. Students will be coming back in the fall, and right now were trying to give this extra tool to help people come back and come back safely. The number of san quentin inmates testing positive for coronavirus continues to grow at an alarming rate. More than 1,100, about 100 new cases just from yesterday. 40 inmates have been transferred to hospitals across the bay area for critical care. Today, the state plans to add more onsite medical help. And most people with covid19 actually have no idea how they contracted it, according to new numbers released by the cdc today.

In fact, the latest county Health Data Shows the 100resident facility is the hardesthit in the area. They did not respond to our request for comment. But the president of the association for Long Term Care medicine says they face a daunting task. Once the virus gets into an alzheimers unit, its next to impossible to keep it from spreading. Reporter saying moving residents out is not always a fit. You dont know if youre moving someone with the virus to a place that has it. Reporter isolation can deepen residents anxiety and fear of abandonment. Why bother living . Whats the point . I cant see my family, what is the point in even living . Reporter shes urging the state to expand its requirements to allow one family visitor after being covidfree for 14 days. I think it would make a major difference if they can see a familiar face.

Four people died yesterday. In total, 578 have lost their lives to the virus here. San francisco is one of the counties that hit the brakes amid this spike. Health leaders say they wont consider opening more businesses until after the fourth of july after the earliest. They also urge everyone to stay home this weekend. Gathering is a social phenomen phenomenon. This virus doesnt care, it will exploit any type of gathering, regardless of the purpose. Thats one thing people really have to understand. Late this afternoon, the city cancelled the annual fourth of July Fireworks show to discourage people of gathering there. And the city of dublin says safe and sane fireworks will only be allowed in neighborhoods with Single Family homes. Dublin is one of the few bay area cities that actually allows fireworks sales. Okay, lets talk about the fourth of july weekend. Its coming up soon. And were going to have a mix of warmer temps as well. Lets check in with rob mayeda. The weather we saw today, the inland temperatures warming up is a bit of a sneak preview. But outside, a very interesting weather map. Looking at bay area weather. Looking at the numbers, this gets us excited with 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s all on the same map. Made possible by the cool ocean and bay waters. We briefly were in the 70s, but right now, cooling to 63. The wind up to 28 miles per hour. Inland, you had temperatures soaring through the mid90s, up to 94 in downtown. Relatively cooler now at 87 degrees. Breeze starting to pick up. San jose, close to 90 degrees, 89, the high, currently at 80. Tomorrow morning, 50s and 60s to start. A little more in the way of coastal low clouds may try to spill inland for the morning. Through the afternoon, heres one of the changes for tomorrow. Notice no 90s on the map. The warmest places will be in the midtoupper 80s. And out of the 70s in San Francisco, cooler for thursday, then temperatures rebound for the weekend. 90s as we approach the Holiday Weekend. Just like that, the weather we had today makes a comeback for fourth of july. Coming up in the next halfhour, well have a closer look at the Holiday Weekend forecast in the bay area coming up. Back to you. Thanks so much, rob. Up next, no vacations to europe. Americans are not welcome. Plus, the states telling californians to stay away.

Is not on the list. A country must have covid19 cases under control to enter any member country, and a top expert warned we could see 100,000 new cases a day in the near future. International flights are currently operating at 15 . Disappointment. Sfo was the first u. S. Airport to require facial masking, and weve made a host of other protective measures. The European Council says it revises the list every two weeks. And new york, once the nations pandemic epicenter, just added california to their quarantine list. San jose may move a bit closer to changing the way it does business. The council is discussing the socalled strong proposal, about hiring and firing city administrators, it would give a lot more power directly to the mayor, similar to San Francisco, oakland, and los angeles. When you go into a room with a Big Corporation that wants to do a project, and the mayor of San Francisco can say, yeah, come to our city. The mayor of san jose says, let me check with my city manager. It can put you in a weak and awkward position when it comes to doing city business. Critics say thats too much power for an elected official. The decision may take a while. Its not the final vote. A yes vote tonight would put the proposal on the november ballot.

And how the president is responding to charges that russia offered bounties for the killing of american troops in afghanistan. When we closed our doors in march, wynn committed instantly to keeping all 15,000 team members onboard. We then focused our fivestar level of service to all who needed it. We made improvements to peoples lives. We strove to be better and we made people happy. This closure may have temporarily taken us out of wynn and encore, but it couldnt take the wynn and encore out of us. And now, we are proud to welcome you back. Right now at 6 30 p. M. , growing pressure for answers from President Trump about the allegations that russia offered bounties for killing american troops in afghanistan. Multiple reports contend the president was notified. Earlier in the day at the white house, the administration briefed a Small Bipartisan Group of lawmakers. Afterward, democrats said it was not very enlightening. The president hasnt come before the country and assured the people that he will get to the bottom of whether the russians are putting a bounty on the heads of american troops. The New York Times cites multiple officials familiar with the matter, who say the investigation has focused on an april 19th car bombing that killed three marines. A dire warning tonight from dr. Anthony fauci, warning new covid cases could grow exponentially if americans do not spread up. More than half the country is seeing a rise in cases. Some seeing a 100 increase in just the last week. I would not be surprised if we go up to 100,000 a day if this does not turn around. So im very concerned. As we mentioned, the European Union reopened its borders to only 14 countries today. The u. S. Is not on that list. Keeping schools safe doesnt necessarily mean having cops on campus. The state school chief examined the impact on officers in school. The big question, do Police Officers increase safety, or do they increase the likelihood that students of color will be introduced to the Justice System . I will say that some of the departments in some of the local jurisdictions now that are keeping school policing are innovating or thinking about innovation, and i hope we can mount some studies. Research shows students say they need more counselors and support staff. Carlton mccoy, with his knowledge of wines and plans to transform the industry, a ceo getting a lot of attention because of a multitude of things. So many layers here. Unique, dynamic, and hes just good at what he does. Think about this. When he walks into a room, hes the first africanamerican to lead a major vineyard. When he walks into a room, he stands out. Not only is he the ceo of the napa valley wine company, hes one of the first black sommeliers. People take him seriously now. What are the Biggest Challenges you faced, whether its the color of your skin or your background in this industry . Whenever youre in a world of luxury, right, there is by design a bit of its exclusive. While im dark enough, people know that. Its hard to believe, i used to have really low corn rows. I shaved it off to be accepted in the world, regardless of my ability or intelligence, you didnt see people of color marketing luxury beverages. In the case of champagne, its almost like a joke. Like youre a rapper doing this, right . So marketing does everything in their power not to have people of color associated with this. So there a ton of variables. How can we change it, and how can you help the community to get more people of color in the Wine Industry . Are there one or two tangible things you can do . Its very interesting, because americans look for a silver bullet, we look at a problem that is hundreds of years old and multifaceted, and say, what can we do . Its not going to be solved overnight. I think the lowhanging fruit is making sure were putting just as much emphasis on education in our communities for wine as we are in other communities. I think that the Wine Industry as a whole needs to change the way they market the beverage, from being an elitist, exclusive industry to something that it was meant to be, a connector of people. Okay, final question. Were heading into the fourth of july weekend. Youre a master sommelier. Not just a ceo. What is a good suggestion for a bottle of wine that will not break the bank . Ill tell you something. I grew up in a very simple household. And to me, holidays actually are not the time to drink the great, fine wines of the world. I think thats very boring. I want festive. When holidays come around, thats the time to let loose, and be around people you love spending time with. With that said, you dont want a wine that, you know, distracts them. The wine should not be, you know, the main event. I love sparkling, a dark rose, and pretty much ill just pour it and drink it with everything. Okay. We are taking notes. Theres the masters recommendation, sparkling dark rose. And he suggested to get it from his friend, chris lyons. Ill be probably going out to the store at some point this weekend to check it out. Youre in charge of getting it for all of us. That will be our fourth of july gift. Such a great idea, jessica. Thanks, raj. Up next, they called it the great oakland checkin.

She tried to cancel a car share service, but the company continued to charge her, month after month. Nbc bay area responds, next. Nbc bay area responds to a San Francisco woman who hit a detour trying to end her car sharing membership. These things seem like they work during normal times, not so much during a pandemic. This woman had a zip car membership, paying 8 a month to drive a car around for 10 an hour. She tried to cancel over and over again, calls, emails, social media messages but got no response so she turned to us. She said it seems like such a small amount of money, but its extremely wrong that i cant cancel my account, and they still charge me. We agree. We reached out to zip car headquarters, and a few hours later she said she got her 24 back, and the account was closed. Zip car didnt explain why it took so long, but they said when a member emails us, it typically takes 24 to 48 hours to review the account. We say, keep records of your efforts to cancel, calls, emails, letters, that will beef up your case when somebody finally does respond. And viewers tell us Credit Card Companies are more open to disputes right now, if you feel a charge is unjust. If that doesnt work, try us. Go to nbcbayarea. Com, or call us. Jessica .

People living close by said someone set off fireworks just before the flames started. Nine acres are scorched, but firefighters were able to keep the flames away from the homes. Cal fire, god bless those men and women. We were worried, we were packed and ready to go. And, you know, fortunately we didnt have to. Cal fire hasnt said what started the fire, but isnt ruling out any possibilities including fireworks. That really is a concern with the heat and fireworks well be seeing many more blazes over the Holiday Weekend. You look at when the fire burned overnight. Typically, sometimes you get low clouds that come in, and humidity levels come up. But its so dry, if you get a little bit of wind, fires can take off quickly. And temperatures are on the rise heading towards this weekend. Today, even San Francisco got a little taste of that, briefly going into the 70s. High of about 73, cooling off to about 63. Look at the High Temperature today in walnut creek, up to 94 degrees. Cooling down to 87. And another place that warmed up bigtime today, from the upper 80s yesterday to 94. Temperatures cooling at 82 in dublin. San jose, a similar trend. A degree shy of 90, 89 was the high in san jose. Good news tomorrow is that the breeze will keep us a little bit cooler inland, and good news for air quality. Green across the board, good news for this time of year. And on the coast tomorrow morning, halfmoon bay to santa cr cruz, low clouds in the morning. Then sunny skies in the afternoon. Temperatures will run a bit more mild. The morning begins in the 50s, similar to today. We may see more in the way of patchy clouds trying to move inland for the morning. And the high for tomorrow afternoon, closer to 80 for a high. Mid80s, south. Tri valley, cooling off by 5 to 8 degrees for todays high. And antioch, 87 degrees. Not much cooling for you. Bigger cooling coming in for thursday. Oakland and hayward, into the 70s. And a stronger sea breeze keeping things cool into San Francisco. Back into the 60s once again, and i think that will hold through friday. Inland towards clear lake, thats where you still have temperatures towards 90. And the temperatures cooling in palo alto, jumping back to the 80s for the weekend. Theres your fourth of july, the weather we had today will be similar to what were expecting to start the weekend. And maybe for the north bay, the heat may stick around longer. The cooling we have now will begin to change right in time for fourth of july. You see the warming air, strengthening High Pressure building up in the south, leads to temperatures on the rise heading towards next weekend. If you like 70s in San Francisco, good timing for your Holiday Weekend plans. Numbers in the low 70s saturday and sunday. The valley, thursday looks to be the coolest, rebounding into the low 90s this weeksend. As the temperatures rise, we need to look out for fireworks. Back to you. Thanks so much, rob.
